More BB - draw your own conclusions

Continuing on the Big Brother theme, the following is taken from Popbitch:

"I am not proud of the Big Brother row - I am not
even proud of Big Brother. But Big Brother accounts
for 15 per cent of the total revenue that keeps
Channel 4 afloat." - Lord Puttnam, deputy chairman C4


And following from Emily Parr getting thrown off:


So indie-loving posho Emily gets canned from
Big Brother for using a racist term to the
show's only African-Caribbean contestant. While
it's suspiciously convenient for Channel 4,
it's hard to feel any sympathy when you
hear Emily's friends springing to her defence.
Here's "Lucie" on Facebook:

"What the hell are you on about 'dirty racist',
she was obviously blatently (sic) joking, it's not
a big deal, it's only people like you and people
who have got so strung up about little things
that the person did not mean in offence that
have made this country so god damn politically
disgustingly correct! URGHH political correctness
will be the downfall of ENGLAND. Don't take
everything so seriously, learn to take a joke and
have a sense of humour or you'll all end up
like that idiot Charley."
